The only spinner I use anymore is the Suveran on my steelhead rod for schoolies. I'm currently making a very light conventional to replace that but we use 1/2 jigs and thats tough with a conventional but #^^^^^^& does it no problem.
The trouble down the Cape is the miniscule eels they sell down there. Some are so small you could fish them like a red gil teaser. Get good big eels that average 2 to 3 OZ and you can cast them into the wind. Anyway , I fished a Penn 850 for a long time and always felt I was losing fish because of the line going over the roller.
